How to wear headphone when practicing

If loose it hangs across the strings in front of me.If I put it behind the guitar the cable gets caught and then pulls on my head as I look up and down at music/strings etc. (This I find really irritating when I'm struggling with some new riff and really concentrating and the next thing is you head's being pulled back by the caught up headphone cable.)

I have also tried hanging the cable behind me, tricky to put on and then still catches on my neck or chair when I look right and left.

I know this is a whinge, but just trying to describe my hassle.

I do have a pair of wireless headphones – Senheisser something or others – a bit hi fi, fairly high end, and I don't really like belting my heavy metal through them.

So what do the pro's do in recording studios etc when they are using headphone. Do I tape the lead to my shoulder strap, or the jack plug..

Suggestions anyone. Thank you in advance.

This has been prompted by getting a Korg Pandora Mini last night – Just great for practising, and easy to use with headphones – Only I need to make the headphones easy too.

I put the headphones on first then I put my guitar strap over my headphones, that way the cord sits underneath the guitar and is out of the way.

I don't play with headphones on while standing, so wireless may be your best option in this regard. And your wireless headphones should be fine to belt heavy metal through as long as the volume is at a reasonable level.

Often in ones madness resides genius. Thus for a mind seeped in madness, the imagination is limitless.

Use a cable clip to hold the cable to your shirt around the back of your neck. If you don't have that then a piece of tape will do just fine. Leave a little room so you can turn your head without pulling it.
